My fellow Legionaires ; We are not far from Nov, 11th the date of the
Drawing for the Truckload of Cheer. The initial return of tickets sold
was an impressive sight, however the last few weeks have been a real
disappointment. We still have nearly 70% of the tickets still out, I
ask you to promptly return all sold tickets and send to the Dugout or
directly to Jim Miessau, 185 Moody Ave. Freeport. Those of you who have
sold the original 5 sent to you and feel you can sell additional chances
kindly contact me at 868-7191 as soon as possible. We need all your
cooperation in this venture if it is to be successful
Jim Miessau.

Vito is planning a Roast Beef Dinner and there
will be Dancing to Live Music and 3 Free Drinks
Our endeavors at our Post have become successful
this past year, this was achieved through the
results of a relatively few members. This is not
to say other members are not interested,they are
and very much so. To some degree we have become
complacent. This situation is unfortunate, but
Can be corrected! But I cannot do it alone; I
must solicit aid, anyone with an idea can come
forward, we will listen and discuss.
